Abstract
Lawrence syndrome (Acquired Generalized Lipodystrophy) is a rare disorder, characterized by various dermatological and systemic manifestations such as lipodystrophy, hypertriglyceridemia, hepatomegaly, acanthosis nigricans and acromegaloid features. Because of its rare occurrence we are reporting a case with similar manifestations in a 10 years old child.
